    Hello Shreedhar,

    Would you please clarify where you want the aforementioned separators to appear - between the actual RadRibbonTabs or inside the actual content of the selected tab? If you could send over an image or short explanation of the desired end result, that would greatly help me in suggesting a viable solution.

    I'm looking forward to your reply.

    Hi Dilyan,

     

    I wanted to have the separators between two RadRibbonTabs itself, not between the contents in tabs. My exact requirement would be whenever the window size ( width ) is less than some particular length ( when I try to shrink or minimize the window) , separators should appear between two RadRibbonTabs in the ribbon bar. Hope you could understand what I am trying to do.. I have attached a screenshot , please have a look on it. One image is when the window is of normal size and another one is when the window is minimized. Please let me know if any more information is required

    Thanks in Advance,

    Shreedhar Bhat

    Hello Shreedhar,

    Thank you very much for your clarification. Based on it, I prepared a sample project based on the Office2016 Inspired RibbonView demo from our SDK Samples Browser. You can find it attached to my reply.

    Here is the code of interest:

    <Style TargetType="telerik:RadRibbonTab" BasedOn="{StaticResource RadRibbonTabStyle}">
        <Setter Property="BorderThickness" Value="0" />
        <Setter Property="Padding" Value="13 4"/>
        <Setter Property="Foreground" Value="{telerik:VisualStudio2013Resource ResourceKey=SelectedBrush}" />
        <Setter Property="Template" Value="{StaticResource RadRibbonTabTemplate}"/>
        <Style.Triggers>
            <DataTrigger Binding="{Binding ActualWidth, RelativeSource={RelativeSource AncestorType=telerik:RadRibbonView}, Converter={StaticResource WidthToBorderConverter}}" Value="True">
                <Setter Property="BorderThickness" Value="0 0 1 0" />
                <Setter Property="BorderBrush" Value="White" />
            </DataTrigger>
        </Style.Triggers>
    </Style>

    public class WidthToBorderConverter : IValueConverter
    {
        private const int MinWidthForTabSeparators = 500;
     
        public object Convert(object value, Type targetType, object parameter, CultureInfo culture)
        {
            return int.Parse(value.ToString()) < MinWidthForTabSeparators;
        }
     
        public object ConvertBack(object value, Type targetType, object parameter, CultureInfo culture)
        {
            throw new NotImplementedException();
        }
    }

    You can observe that once you resize the window so that its width is smaller than 500 pixels (you can change this to a value of your choice), the separators are displayed. Please let me know if this is what you had in mind.
